Hide and show fields

Hide or unhide hides in your data table to display just the data that you need to work with.

Hiding fields

Individual fields can be hidden by clicking the arrow icon that appears when hovering over a hidden header and selecting Hide.

To hide several hides:

  1. Select the fields you want to hide by clicking their headers.

  2. Click the Field icon on the toolbar and select Hide selected fields. You can also hide the fields you didn't select by clicking Hide unselected fields. 

In the case of data tables with a large number of fields, you can select the Field manager icon on the toolbar. Using this option, you can easily look for fields using the search box in the window and hide the ones you don't need by deselecting them. This comes in handy when you are querying a data table that contains a great amount of information. You can also reorder fields by selecting and dragging them to the required place.

When you access a data table using a finder, you can hide fields before opening the data table. The Field manager icon turns green when you pick specific fields when running a search or when you hide fields in the search window.

In the field manager, click on the heading banner to reorder your hides according to name or type.

Unhiding fields

To show all the hidden fields, click the Field icon on the toolbar Show hidden fields.

Individual fields can be unhid by selecting the Field manager icon on the toolbar and checking the fields you want to show.
